In the following days, Xia Yu devoted all his energy to the Bright Fund.

Now affected by the overall environment, the financial industry has also appeared to be sluggish. Many financial industry employees are not happy, so in the face of the attractive salary offered by Bright Fund, many talents come to apply for employment.

And because of the market environment, it is very difficult for the four headhunting companies commissioned by Xia Yu to dig people. Faced with the olive branch thrown by Xia Yu, many elite talents are willing to come and give it a try.

Therefore, Xia Yu is interviewing people every day and at the same time ordering the established acquisition team to collect information about the Rolls-Royce Group as soon as possible.

Of course, it’s worth mentioning that Henry Howard’s enthusiasm for learning Kungfu is very high. When Li Wuming did not leave Xia Yu, he took the initiative to go to the Bright Fund to find Li Wuming, and Xia Yu ordered Li Wuming to work in one of the company’s offices. Teaching Henry Howard in the empty room.

Sometimes Elena would also come with him. As a result, the siblings and Xia Yu became more and more familiar with each other.

It was January 21st in a flash.

Xia Yu had just finished the operational deployment meeting of the Rolls-Royce temporary acquisition team in the large conference room, returned to his office and sat down, and saw George Berkeley walk in with a smile on his face.

Upon seeing this, Xia Yu also smiled. He knew that the acquisition was successful!

Early this morning, George Berkeley took the team to Pearson Group.

The Pearson Group directly let go, so the negotiation went smoothly. George Berkeley also knew what the boss Xia Yu wanted, so while the Pearson Group was good at talking, he also raised the price step by step according to the rhythm.

Over the past ten days, the price has been mentioned at 16.5 million pounds step by step, and the Pearson Group’s reserve price has also stepped down to 17.5 million pounds.

The acquisition team judged that it would be successful this time, and prepared everything to go to Pearson Group.

"Take it?"

Xia Yu asked with a smile, a ray of expectation rose in his heart.

"Boss, has signed an equity transfer contract with a purchase price of 17 million pounds. He bought 71% of the equity in the Financial Times company held by Pearson Group. As long as the funds arrive, it will take effect and the equity will be transferred!"

"This is a signed agreement, please check it out!"

George Berkeley presented Xia Yu with a stack of contracts in a kraft paper bag in his hand.

Because of the successful completion of the task, George Berkeley was red, obviously very excited.

Xia Yu opened the kraft paper file bag, took out a stack of contracts, and quickly flipped through them. The key figures were collected in his eyes and kept in mind.

Sure enough, it was a transfer price of 17 million pounds, and the transfer was the entire Financial Times Group company's equity, not just the "Financial Times" magazine.

Xia Yu knows that in the Financial Times Group, in addition to the Financial Times, it also holds a 50% stake in the company where the Economist magazine is located, and also has assets such as the Economic Research Institute.

Of course, in addition to these software assets, the Financial Times Group also owns hardware assets such as company locations and materials.

After packing together, it is estimated that the Bright Fund spent 17 million pounds to buy 71% of the equity, which shows that the current Financial Times Group's overall value is close to 24 million pounds!

"Very well, you go and sign the payment slip, put the money into the Pearson Group account, and complete the final acquisition process."

Xia Yu told George Berkeley.

"Ok!"

"How many scattered stocks have you acquired?"

Xia Yu asked suddenly again.

He knows that although George Berkeley has been violently attacking Pearson Group's equity, the 29% of the equity scattered in the hands of other minority shareholders has also been divided into tasks and employees are separately responsible for the acquisition.

George Berkeley immediately replied: "The boss, so far, has received 18.4% of the equity, and the total cost is 3.89 million pounds. The purchase price is lower than the Pearson Group."

"The remaining 10.6% of the equity has not been acquired. It is not difficult. It can definitely complete the task in five days at most!"

Holding 89.4% of the shares of the Financial Times Group, George Berkeley is full of confidence. Those small shareholders have to sell if they don't sell. Otherwise, as a major shareholder, some means to deal with them. As long as the small shareholders are wise, they will take the initiative to let go.

These small shareholders are already in contact, as long as the Pearson Group let go of the news, ensure that they accept their fate one by one.

So five days is definitely enough!

"Five days? Yes, it's best to be able to do it early. After completing the acquisition, immediately acquire the remaining 50% of The Economist's equity!"

Xia Yu nodded in satisfaction, thought about it, and ordered George Berkeley.

After George Berkeley agreed, he calmed down a bit, and suddenly thought of the answer to the question he asked when he left. He felt that he had to tell his boss.

"Boss, the reason for the big change in Pearson Group's attitude has been found."

George Berkeley said truthfully, still puzzled.

Xia Yu condensed his eyes and immediately asked: "Explain what happened in detail!"

"After signing the contract today, I chatted with the chairman of the Pearson Group, and he mentioned that he did not intend to sell the Financial Times Company, but it was because Duke Carter Howard communicated with their patriarch. Changed my mind."

"Boss, as for why Duke Carter Howard helped us, the reason is still unknown."

George Berkeley said with a somewhat complicated expression.

George Berkeley didn't know, but Xia Yu understood. At this time, his expression was quite different.

He didn't expect Elena and Henry's father to help, which was completely beyond his expectation.

Obviously, Duke Howard knew that he was acquiring the Financial Times Group. In order to repay him for saving Henry, he helped him. This is considered a favor.

This is totally unexpected!

Now that he knew that it was Duke Carter Howard's handwriting, Xia Yu was at ease.

Of course, although George Berkeley is still at a loss, there is no need to let him know about it, so Xia Yu said to him with a relaxed expression: "Okay, George, don't worry, I have something to do with Duke Howard~www .readwn.com~ I didn't expect him to help me."

George Berkeley looked at Xia Yu in surprise. He didn't expect Xia Yu to know Duke Carter Howard.

But this is the secret of the boss. Since the boss didn't say anything, it would be inconvenient for him to ask again. Anyway, as long as he knows that there is no problem.

"George, if there is nothing else, you will complete the equity delivery as soon as possible."

"Then boss, I'm going out first!"

"Ok!"

When George Berkeley withdrew, Xia Yu showed a chuckle at the corner of his mouth, worrying for nothing.

"But that's okay. I have a good relationship with Elena and Henry. Duke Carter Howard's attitude toward the world can be seen. This is great for me!"

"Remember that Hony has said that Carter Howard is still closely related to the Conservative Party, and he is in the right place!

"It seems to be a good grasp..."
